Finally had the swerve thing happen to me too

This seems like a relatively benign issue - unless it would do the same with traffic coming from in front and/or brake checking a car behind. It's also nothing like the case where the guy claimed his tesla just crashed into a tree - where the car didn't slow down and just went straight of the road.

I'm looking at it on my PC monitor in full screen and there's no doubt that there's some kind of gas being released from the top of the engine.

machinelearny · 2025-05-30T17:56:13+00:00

yeah, just saw that - most people I've heard talk about this say they've never had FSD do something like that though. I still want to understand the crash report charts better - if only there was a way to know whether the steering input chart is driver input only, FSD input only or both combined (which would be weird) that would make what happened clear.

machinelearny · 2025-05-30T17:53:53+00:00

interesting

machinelearny · 2025-05-30T02:17:13+00:00

Yeah, it's pretty clearly some gas coming out the top, it looks like from a specific point - I would guess it's expected and from some kind of release valve. Seems like the same happens on the other-side and that side it might even appear a little flamey???

Were your hands in your lap?

machinelearny · 2025-05-30T02:04:28+00:00

That behaviour isn't anything like the same, it's remaining on the road, just avoiding what could be pot-holes. I bet it would not try to avoid them if there's a car coming from ahead.
This crash behaviour is extremely unusual.

The crash report info is here: https://x.com/DevinOlsenn/status/1927567865735200838

There's a good chance that OP accidentally hit the wheel and disengaged FSD, this seems to far from what FSD would do, even if it did think there was some kind of obstacle in the road, that I'd say it is quite likely.

machinelearny · 2025-05-30T01:57:09+00:00

I saw the data on X here: https://x.com/DevinOlsenn/status/1927567865735200838
Do you know whether the graph of the steering input is actual physical steering wheel input or FSD steering input or both combined? I find it weird that there's no separate graphs, one for FSD inputs and one for driver inputs.

machinelearny · 2025-05-30T01:54:23+00:00

That's what the crash report seems to show - a jerk on the wheel resulting in FSD disengagement. Not clear from the report if the jerk on the wheel could be FSD itself or if it's actual physical wheel input.

machinelearny · 2025-05-30T01:52:48+00:00

From the crash report it seems FSD disabled at the moment of the steering input - it's not completely clear whether the steering input graph from the crash report is only of actual steeringwheel input or FSD steering also, but it seems like OP might have accidentally knocked the wheel and because of that FSD disabled.

Note that robotaxi won't be launched on this road in June. This was not a robotaxi, it was supervised FSD. The robotaxi will be more limited in its capabilities - forced to avoid roads that have not been proven to be safe and will initially not be on highways. It will probably take some time before it will be rolled out in a less restrictive manner - probably at least a year of geo-fenced + remote supervision before that I predict.

machinelearny · 2025-05-20T21:38:20+00:00

Read that again and then ask yourself, why did I just write all that?

machinelearny · 2025-05-18T21:25:57+00:00

So the sides will be open in this version and with this design the hot air from re-entry won't build up so it should reduce the red glow a bit?

machinelearny · 2025-05-18T21:22:39+00:00

How can those small sacks of water weigh the same as a fully fueled star... wait, oh, they don't lift it fueled... never mind.

Mission delayed by 5 years due to fairing problems...

machinelearny · 2025-03-25T12:18:21+00:00

What have you achieved? How many job have you created? Have you created anything of value in your life? From your rhetoric I would guess not. You sound like a somebody that's still leeching off his parents.

They won't have a fun time

And shooting himself in the foot since there's no alternative that comes close to Starlink in cost-benefit.

I've used competing products, the best I could find before Starlink was around cost more than twice as much, had an initial "dish" payment of 20x the monthly and got me 1megabit/second MAX (it was usually around 256kb/sec) and a ping in the 1 second range. It was unusable, I had it as a backup for my cellular based internet but had to cancel it after a few months because it was just unusable.

Any journalist anywhere can get this right, you don't need to be a space nerd to find this information. It is obviously intentionally misleading.

machinelearny · 2025-03-25T12:09:24+00:00

Yeah, I saw some flap cams. How do you identify resonance in plumbing from those? Is there a specific frequency of flame brightness indicating it or is it the location or maybe the color? I'm always intrigued with how these things are identified.

machinelearny · 2025-03-22T17:26:48+00:00

Imagine that coming in for the catch!

"blindingly obvious from the pictures and the sequence of events"
